Skywagon silhouette

A friend just bought a very good computer controlled plasma cutter and offered to make me a silhouette of my 185. Does anybody have a good silhouette that I can use as a template.

Jeff.

Re: Skywagon silhouette

I would also like to have a digitized version of that, if possible :)

Re: Skywagon silhouette

Are you looking for a photograph to digitize? Or a drawing? Or ?
The factory W&B sheet for my 53 model 180 has a pretty cool generic drawing at the top,
maybe that'd work for you.

Cessna Skywagon -- accept no substitute!

Re: Skywagon silhouette

I like the frontal view on this. Used it for my company hats.

I was looking for a good digital image.

Thank you for the ideas. I may use them as a template and see how they work out.

I can digitize pretty much any image and provide a cut ready file. Here is a link to some trophys I made for a highlander fly-in https://www.instagram.com/p/BJj6fQFBZJq ... istrictfab

Hi Jeff, here is a stained glass pattern I made for the 185 after a trip to the Steens years ago.

Those look great. I will PM you. I would like to take a good air-to-air pic of our wagon and go from there. I will be in touch.

CFOT, that glass looks very nice and very detailed. I definitely don’t have the skill or patience for something hat nice.

Those look very nice. I look forward to seeing what you might come up with for a C180.
